Carrier-Neutral
Equinix facilities connect to many carriers; your traffic reaches Türk Telekom, Vodafone, Turkcell and international transit over short paths.
Our Own Racks and Hardware
HPE and Dell servers, Arista and Juniper switches, owned and operated by CloudBT. We are not reselling another provider's VPS.
Published Measurements
Latency from the facility, measured on October 5, 2026: 1.4 ms to Cloudflare Istanbul, 1.8 ms to Türk Telekom, 3.1 ms to Borsa Istanbul.
Facility
About Equinix IL4
IL4 is part of Equinix's Istanbul campus. The figures below are from Equinix's public announcements and our own measurements.
Location: Dudullu Organized Industrial Zone, Ümraniye, Istanbul (Asian side).
Capacity: Equinix announced IL4 in October 2024 with about 1,125 cabinets over roughly 3,044 square meters of colocation space, as part of a campus of more than 7,500 square meters.
Cooling and power: Designed for high-density and liquid-cooling-ready deployments; redundant power paths.
Connectivity: Carrier-neutral with access to Turkish operators and international carriers; Equinix has operated in Turkey since 2017.
Measured from inside the facility
| Destination | Measured latency | Method |
|---|---|---|
| Cloudflare Istanbul | 1.4 ms | ICMP |
| TurkNet (ISP) | 1.7 ms | TCP connect |
| Türk Telekom (DNS server) | 1.8 ms | ICMP |
| Borsa Istanbul (stock exchange) | 3.1 ms | TCP connect |
| Vodafone Turkey | 6.2 ms | TCP connect |
| Google Public DNS | 10.2 ms | ICMP |
| e-Devlet (government portal) | 10.8 ms | TCP connect |
| Turkcell | 14.2 ms | TCP connect |
Measured on October 5, 2026. Measured from our production server in Equinix IL4, Istanbul. ICMP values are the average of ten packets; TCP values are the connection setup time to port 443 (DNS resolution excluded, lowest of six attempts). Values vary with network conditions.
Compared with data centers abroad
| From Istanbul to | Measured latency |
|---|---|
| Milan | 30 ms |
| Frankfurt | 35 to 45 ms |
| Nuremberg and Falkenstein | 37 to 40 ms |
| Amsterdam | 40 to 51 ms |
| Warsaw | 45 ms |
| London | 47 to 52 ms |
| Paris | 47 to 56 ms |
| Stockholm and Helsinki | 56 ms |
| US East Coast | 117 to 130 ms |
| Singapore | 188 to 190 ms |
Comparison values were measured from the same server to the test servers of public cloud providers in each city. A visitor in Turkey reaching a server in that city travels roughly the same path.
Why the data center matters for a VPS
Two providers with the same CPU and the same disk can differ by tens of milliseconds for the same visitor, simply because of where the rack stands and which carriers the facility connects to. For a Turkish audience, Istanbul beats every Western European location; inside Istanbul, a carrier-neutral facility beats a single-carrier one.

Highlights

Ümraniye, inside Equinix's Istanbul campus.
Redundant Power and Uplinks
Dual power supplies per server, two 100G uplinks per host to separate switches.
Layer 2 Isolation
Each customer in its own VLAN; VXLAN private networks for virtual data centers.

Automatic provisioning; SSH or RDP details in the panel.
What Runs in IL4
Every plan, from the smallest VPS to a virtual data center, runs on the same hardware in this facility.
AMD EPYC Processors
Dual AMD EPYC processors in every physical host. Your virtual server runs on cores reserved for you.
All-NVMe Storage
The entire storage layer is NVMe SSD. Database queries and file operations are noticeably faster than on SATA SSD.
2×100G Redundant Network
Every host connects to two separate switches with a 100G link each. If a switch or link fails, your traffic flows over the other.
Snapshots and Firewall
Three snapshots per server and a panel-managed firewall are included in every plan.
HPE and Dell Servers
Dual power supplies, ECC memory and hot-swap drives as standard.
Arista and Juniper Network
Low-latency switching with redundant uplinks at the core and access layers.
ICMP, average of ten packets.
Why Equinix?
Equinix operates interconnection-focused data centers worldwide; its Istanbul campus is where Turkish operators, international carriers and cloud on-ramps meet. Hosting in IL4 means our servers sit next to the networks our customers' users are on, which is what the measurements on this page show.
